WSJ: T-Mobile, Medio and Google

A good read in The Wall Street Journal today on how Bellevue’s T-Mobile USA — unlike other big carriers — is cozying up to Google and its new wireless platform Android. The story notes the potential impact on Medio Systems, the heavily funded Seattle mobile search startup that has a deal with T-Mobile.

But T-Mobile Chief Development Officer Cole Brodman tells the Journal that the partnership with Medio is secure even if the carrier is working more closely with Google.

Medio Chief Executive Brian Lent also is quoted, saying that he is hopeful that T-Mobile will use his company’s “core infrastructure” as the base for mobile search.
